Total US deficit when Obama took over was $1.4 trillion dollars. currently it stands at around $700bn.
Total US deficit when Bush took over was $130bn. when he left it was $1.4tn.
Just saying...

We could save a lot of money if conservative folk could lay off the "all life is sacred until it is born" nonsense. If you harp on abortion being murder, don't pipe up and scream when you have to fit the bill for little Ricky who could have been aborted.
Just kill off old timers who voted to get as many benefits as possible for themselves and kill some more poor kids. We would be on a gravy train with biscuit wheels!

There are many people deserving of Welfare, food stamps, etc. There are also many people that have paid into the system for many years only to find themselves out of jobs. They too are deserving. But there are many many people that are very capable of working but choose not to. Why, because there is no incentive to do so when everything is given to them with basically no restrictions. Yeah they don't have any real assets per say, but they are perfectly content to freeload. And you can't deny the fact that there are indeed freeloaders.

People will always game the system. The wealthy do this a bunch too, there are a ton of loopholes at the top as well. It is just very ignorant to call all those on govt. assistance "slugs". There are also plenty of other places we could cut back funding from as well...

not necessarily but I'm sure it's reasonably widespread. I just mentioned that because if someone calls someone else a socialist usually it pisses them off.It's how any system of government works?
my personal take is that have no beef what so ever helping out people who need help. I think they should be somewhat grateful for the help and strive to get back on their feet as soon as possible just from a morality standpoint.
I also believe that they should be glad to do whatever busy work they can in return for that help. And it does bother me when people who are actually needy can barely survive while generation after generation of able bodied deadbeats refuse to do anything.

Trust me, that's not just a US problem, we have the same debates here. It's actually one of the biggest issues when it come to election time, benefits. I have no doubt that there are plenty of able bodied people out there not *willing* to find work because they have a cushy enough life living on handouts, and those people deserve nothing.
On the other hand, there are people out there who *cannot* find work, either physically/mentally unable to do so, or just nobody will hire them. If those people don't get the handouts, they won't be able to survive.
Recently the idea of working for benefits has been floated, and I generally support it, as long as it isn't detrimental to local economy - think Shawshank with the prison workers underbidding on every contract. It's no good forcing those people on benefits to work if it means more people are unemployed and claiming benefits.
In another twist, we also have the issue of EU migrants that we can't legally reject, being able to claim benefits, making Britain a potential 'benefit tourism' destination.
